talking about trickle-down government. and they took off from there. it seemed that shaped a lot of where the conversation went. >> i would have liked to have seen more than themes, actually. i thought a lot of the themes got lost-- they crammed each answer with too many specifics, too many details, too many planks in the platform in each different answer. it was kind of lost. i'm not sure voters who are not paying attention to politics. we know the background to all these issues but i'm not quite sure what they'll get out of it if anything. >> woodruff: that's my question, are voters -- we followed some of this but it was pretty dense at times, wasn't it. >> it was. the president's theme was how the burdens and benefits of governmented ought to be distributed. he kept coming back to that. that we were sort of all in this together. and what surprised me, i guess, about mitt romney was he used the-- as a credential, the governorship of massachusetts more tonight than he has in the past 11 months. it's just remarkable. you w

governor romney wants to bring government spending per g.d.p. to g.d.p. down to 20%. and he has a theory that says that if you do that and you do the other things that he's going to do with the tax code that he is going to get economic growth. and so the second thing i'm listening for is, "what is their solution to the situation we're in right now with the economy? how are they going to solve the deficit problem and also increase job creation?" and i'd like to hear that explained clearly, because they have two very different philosophies. third, i think that if the debates do their job, we're going to be able to answer the question, "what are the sacrifices either one is going to ask us to make?" >> such as reforming social security, medicare, higher taxes, lower taxes? >> yes. and on the table are all sorts of things that many people value a great deal and we may not be able to afford anymore. so should we have deductibility for second home mortgages? should we have deductibility for high-cost homes? should we have health insurance coverage provided by employers cont

mitt romney staring at the president and the president looking down at the podium and perhaps some notes in front of him. what do you make of that? >> it was really strike. it suggests the president was disengaged. he didn't want to be challenged in the manner mitt romney was challenging him and challenging him repeatedly. this is something barack obama hasn't been accustomed to whether it's internal debates in the white house where there are advisors nodding in agreement or white house press corps not challenging him in a direct and confrontational but respectful way that mitt romney did last night. bill: does this change things? >> it could. the question going forward is whether mitt romney reshapes his campaign to almost mimic or imitate the aggressive bold style we saw from him in the debate last night. he was respectful but he was tough. he was aggressive with the president. he challenged the president on facts and importantly after challenging the president on facts after pointing out problems with his record he offered an alternative vision for the future. voters who watched the d
